With summer on the way it time to start thinking about some cool salads for those hot summer afternoons or light dinners for the muggy evenings, this is one of my favorite summer salads and living in VA I am fortunate enough to be able to obtain the best sweet succulent Maryland blue crabs, I can either go to the docks or spend a lazy afternoon pulling them up with a chicken neck tied to a string from under the pier.
